[ OUTSIDE - THE MAIN BASE CAMPFIRE ] (EMOTION: HATRED) Someone has set a campfire up closest to the outside of the hospital. It attracts a straggling amount of undying, but nothing too serious. Some survivors have settled in together, though occasionally when you blink, they look like infected instead. Best not to stare too hard, or hope they come for you next.
Sighing Ritsa continued her wanderings around outside, having separated herself from the group once again. Guilt still plagued her, despite the fact she had somehow helped Red 7 come back there were two other leaders they had lost so far. Rebecca and Jeff, and now the lingering fear that Eights and Guy would be lost to them as well.
Wrapping her arms around herself Ritsa tried to focus on the positive. She was live, the other people from the mall she had come to know so well were still alive. Her face paled at a flash reminder of her blood stained hands and the body next to her. Of the horrific figure of Eights she had seen only briefly. She seemed to have escaped some state of insanity for now but that didn't mean the ordeal didn't leave a scar on her.
Ritsa could feel the cold air against her skin. As depression slowly made it's way through the insanity that had left her. What was she supposed to do now? She didn't think anyone cared enough to continue wanting her around, and she couldn't blame them. She was, after all, a monster. She didn't know red well, and so had not lingered for any celebration. It just didn't seem right considering she had never really spoken to the lady.
Unaware of where her feet were taking here Ritsa paused as her eyes focused on a lone campfire. She hated fire but that didn't count much towards how much she hated herself. Hated the things she had done, the words she had said, the actions she had taken. Hated the fact she was too weak to stay away from everyone. She wanted people to want her, she hated that too.
Nearing the fire Ritsa sat down and stared at the flames. Insanity had left sure, but she wasn't quite herself anymore. There was a dead look to her.

[Outside]
After the nightmare of inside, July had opted to take him and his husband outside. It was disturbing at best inside that damn hospital, and he was uncomfortable. His mind raced, madness still chewing at him as he stuck close to Jayson. There in the distance was the light of a fire. The young man had been struggling to actually keep a hold on reality, everything was surreal to him. He still felt terrified, and jumpy at the slightest thing.
Yet the flames, much like the casino had attracted him to the location. Not far from the light of the lone campfire, he could make out the face of a person. For a brief moment he thought they were infected, but as he blinked the image dispelled itself. It was really had to concentrate when paranoia was threatening to overtake his mind and body alike.
“Jay…can we stay for a bit? I’m really tired of running..” He was exhausted really. Like usual, the pair had traveled together and now was no different. He was losing grip on reality, and his mind was in a state of turmoil. July had dark shadows forming under his eyes, and his skin really was intensively itchy. If he thought about it, he could actually ignore the sensation especially as he talked to someone else.
His eyes traveled to the figure of the girl he’d seen earlier, taking her appearance in before he took a deep breath. “A…are you actually real?” He finally managed to get the courage to ask as his eyes stared at her. July hadn’t meant for the tremor in his voice, but it was hard to be confident given the situation.

"Real? I guess so." Ritsa nodded listlessly, raising her head to look at Jay. Was he supposed to be familiar? Guess it didn't really matter did it? She was a nobody after all. "You're name is forgotten if I knew it... Names... I really hate names." Ritsa muttered staring down at her hands. Before turning back to look at the fire. Somehow she found herself shifting to make room for the individual who had joined her. "Sit if you must I guess. If nothing else the fire is warm. And you don't look green."

Jayson walked with his lover, hand clenching his. ******** that hospital! He'd rather take his chances in the fog!!! He looked to his lover briefly, sighing at the site of him looking so rough. Then again, Jay also looked pretty rough... At least he didn't go coocoo for cocoa puffs and stab some person to death. He rubbed his neck, his eyes catching on the light of something in the distance.... A fire.
Reaching the fire, Jay nodded to anders. "If they are real..." He mumbled. Walking up to the women by the fire, he stared intently at her. He reached his hand over to poke at her, he could actually touch her. "Y-you're real... Really?" He tried to ask even though it was more for reassuring himself more than anything.
Jay looked back to July, scratching at his arm. His skin crawled and itches as his paranoia caused him to startle at simple noises. He shifted uncomfortably. "We've... Seen.. Things.." He mumbled, looking around.

The woman's voice sounded real enough, but so had a lot of the things July had seen tonight. If he really thought about it, he even could make out the fact he reconized her possibly from the Mall. It was pretty hard to tell honestly. "Names are hard rig..." His voice trailed off as his gaze traveled back to the fire she'd invited him over too. It was like he'd forgotten whatever it was he was going to say. "It's July." He added after a moment, realizing he might as well supply her with a name.
If nothing else the fire was warm. "Yeah..I guess it can't hurt." He looked down, still recalling the explanation that he'd attacked someone in a state of complete blind rage. July didn't even remember it, but the blood had been real enough as well. Hopefully this girl was real, and not something that would rot or change appearances as they talked more.
"Thank you.." He started to say as he watched Jay poke at the girl. July slowly sat himself down staring into the flames. His gaze was vacant for a long while before he glanced at her again. "We did see things in there it's not good..what about you?" July added with a small frown.

Somewhere in the darkness away from the campfire, the sound of heavy foot steps and snapping twigs grew closer. Leaves crumpled and were crushed, rocks went tumbling some distances than where they originated. Not because of some undead or other monstrous creature had found their way to them, no, it was simply a disgruntled teenager; her mood awesomely amplified by their surroundings.
Wordlessly, well maybe a huff, Lease plopped herself on one of ground opposite everyone as much as possible. Her legs pulled in under her as her arms crossed over her chest and her eyes remained straight into the fire. They could easily go on about their conversation really, she began to mutter under her breathe.
After about a minute, her narrowed eyes finally looked up at them, flicking her gaze at each one before they settled on the familiar girl. From the haze of earlier, she still recognized her a little bit. Though, there was a moment there, oddly enough, that she didn't look like herself. Something odd, but with a shake of her head, it seemed to clear away. "Found him." Lease simply told Ritsu, apparently at least in the mood to share, and then resumed silent grump mode.

Flinching away a little as she was approached Ritsa didn't seem to react much more to being poked. "See, I'm real." Shifting over to make more room Ritsa returned to looking at the fire quietly. Silence was ok right? If they didn't ask questions she wasn't going to be forced to answer. Besides they all know the answers anyway, G-man could have simply told them. Maybe they had the ability to read her mind?
Ritsa Flinched again she wanted to yell at them all about how she hated fake actions and they should just move on. Before she could say anything though there was another crunch of footsteps moving towards her. Great just what she wanted a group of people ready to confront her. If they attacked her she wouldn't put up a fight, she had earned it. They were probably suffering just as much and if ending her would ease their suffering so be it.
Looking towards the figure from the corner of her eyes Ritsa noted it was Lease. "Hello lease." Ritsa drawled out pointing to the two males who had joined her. "You know them? I don't remember them." Costumes were a big give away they were from the mall, though Ritsa seemed to be more focused on other things than searching names. It wasn't until Lease had mentioned something about 'Finding him' that life seemed to return to her.
"You did?" It was asked suddenly before she swallowed and turned to look away. "Is he... did he..." She couldn't bring herself to ask the question that haunted her. Was he dead? She brought her legs closer to herself as she returned staring into the fire. Why bother getting her hopes up.
Turning to respond to Jayson. "You may have seen things... but you haven't done things..."

July didn't look at Ritsa when she spoke, feeling like he was overstepping his boundaries. More like he was crazy, and muttering nonsense about seeing s**t in the dark.
When she replied to his husband, the black haired male felt his teeth clench. "Some of us have." He replied, resorting to silence. Oh he'd done plenty alright. Grabbing for his sweaters hood he pulled it up over his head and stopped trying to babble. It was hard to concentrate on the two figures speaking. Hatred stirred in his mind, for himself and the situation they were in. July had killed someone, and contributed to the death of the rest of his family outside his husband. The mall costume socks he wore felt out of place and ridiculous given the situation they were all in.
"..everyone's done something to survive this long." His voice was barely above a whisper as he listened to the two of them converse. July glanced back at Jay, waving the other to come sit down. July just wanted to stay awhile, and listen. For the now anyway.
A flicker of something saner was there in his mind as he stared between the two conversing. Something about finding him. July idling rubbed at a spot on his arm that was still crawling with that damn itching feeling. Some people had it way worse, it was pretty obvious. "Who exactly?" He asked flatly, in reference to He.

Jayson grumbled a bit at her reply, frustrated that the other somehow thought that her and July hadn't done things. They've done plenty of things to ******** with ones subconscious. He'd left his and Julys family to die because he was a coward.. He'd given up any chance of having a child with his lover.. And more.. Taking a deep breath, Jay moved to sit by July. Not willing to speak much, wanting to try to relax. Well.. As much as he could.
He jerked a bit as another person appeared, on edge till it seemed the other girl knew the new person. "... We... Kept to ourselves." He mumbled, giving excuse to why they haven't recognized them. He slid his arm around his lover and rested his head on his shoulder. He felt cold on the inside and burnt on the outer. He just wanted to be back at the mall.. The closest thing they had to home.

Irritated as she was, Lease seemed to indulge Ritsu in at least looking at the pair of guys across from her. As before with the other girl, the flames - she was guessing - played tricks with her eyes making them briefly look like the creatures she still denied existed. (If you asked her about today... well...)
"Nope." But really, that wasn't saying much since she barely made an effort to get to know any of the Mall Rats. So many seemed unfamiliar to her even as long as they had been trapped together.
Lease pulled her knees up in front of her and wrapped her arms around them. "Found him in a weird computer room, Gretel like.. hugged him or some weird ******** up s**t and 'saved' him." It sounded almost sarcastic the way she was explaining it, even with air quotes, "I dunno. One minute some ******** up thing.. the next not. My head felt better after though." That was a plus.

The loud piercing shriek of metal scraping against metal sang out from the fog as a misshaped thing rolled from the mists. "YOU --" The torso of the thing split in half, revealing a large jagged mouth with an even larger, thick tongue that lashed back and forth. "YOU YOU YOU!"
"IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU! YOU SAID -- YOU SAID -- YOU SAID --"

Tear welled up in Ritsa's eyes. He was safe, thank all for that. Alive and well, Gretel had been the one to bring him back. And for that she was grateful to the girl. But in the end it did not bring back Jeff. Her eyes turned to the two men and then back to the fire. "That explains why I don't recognize either of you then, but if Lease sees you, then you can't be another voice coming back to haunt me." She eyed them carefully as if debating telling them she had been the cause
Ritsa flails about and is unsure who it is that is attacking
Jayson jerked up almost immediately at the sounds of metal clanking. His eyes widened in complete shock. Is this... What they were chatting about? WHAT THE ******** WAS THAT BULL s**t!? A BINGO INFECTED???... N-no.. This was something different.. Bigger.. Stronger.
Jay pulled July behind him and brandished his knife at the creature. He growled, "You've got to be SHITTING me! I just ******** sat down!" He yelled at it. Though the things words echoed in his head, he refused to give in to fear, he had to protect the only thing he had left... July.
He thrusted the knife at the mob, slashing at it then retreated back a bit.. ******** had a huge a** mouth!

And if things couldn't get any weirder or ******** up. "The hell is that thing?!" She screeched, instantly on her feet and stumbling backwards. What kind of messed up mind made this sort of animatronic? (Still, that bits of denial...). Attaching some weird chest piece to a gigantic bingo cage? Really? Well, she gathered it went hand int hand with turning that guy Eights into a walking pincushion. But really.
"I'm so tired of this s**t!" She grunted, the angry energy of the campfire seemingly pulling her from her normal cowardice and pushing her towards the deranged looking monstrosity that had crashed their little 'party.'
She attacked the best way she could manage with a set of candles and a flashlight, which was pretty much holding them and thrashing and using teenage rage.

Their knives went snicker snack into the fiend as it screeched and clattered and moaned and clankity-clittered. The empty skulls clinked and clattered wildly about as the boss rolled backwards, into the fog. Gone.
